Chapter 36: The Phoenix
"Yes, maybe it's really fate, there is a providence arrangement in the dark!" I smiled a little awkwardly.
And only I understand that there must be something strange in it, and I must ask the old man who made a wish after work today.
After Wang Xiaosheng chatted with me for a few words, he went to work in the hotel, and I went back to the apartment.
At this time, there is still an hour before work, and it is still early.
I wanted to pull up the curtains and call the wish-making old man out directly, but after thinking about it, I still forgot it.
I cleaned up briefly, took a break, looked at the time, and it was almost over. I got up and got dressed and went downstairs to Xiaohan casserole.
As soon as I arrived downstairs, I suddenly remembered that there was no transportation in Beiwei, and if there were, it was convenient to go anywhere.
Although there are cars now, they are also standard for the powerful, and many rich people can't even buy cars.
As for motorcycles, they are also rare, and the happiness 250 at this time can be said to be popular all over the country. But I don't know how to ride a motorcycle at this time, and I don't have a driver's license at this time, so I'd better wait for the first batch of driver's licenses for motor vehicles to get tested before buying
Otherwise, it will be troublesome to wait for the household and driver's license to be used in the future.
Therefore, the most suitable means of transportation at present is the bicycle.
I scratched my head, and I took advantage of the break at noon to buy one, there seemed to be a channel on the square street.
I walked in the direction of Zhengfang Street, and when I arrived at the store, I found that Zhang Qian had arrived.
I greeted her: "Zhang Qian, when did you come, it's early."
"I've just arrived, too." Zhang Qian turned her head to look at me, and then pointed to the rag on the side: "Come on, start cleaning."
I looked at the ten tables and the floor, some of them had big heads, but I nodded, then I picked up a random rag, shook it, and began to wipe the table.
I have never done any housework in my previous life, and my efficiency is indeed much lower than Zhang Qian.
By the time I had just finished wiping the three tables and chairs, she had finished wiping the other five and began to mop the floor.
I shook my head helplessly, and thought to myself: This kind of work has to be done by women.
After cleaning, it was close to noon, and some guests slowly came.
I've been working all afternoon yesterday, so I won't talk about being proficient today, but I know a little.
followed Zhang Qian's nervous busyness, serving food, closing the table, and cleaning.
Finally, the guests gradually finished and our meal arrived.
Brother Mao in the back kitchen instructed Li Shulin to make a few home-cooked dishes, and the boss also came at this time, so we ate together.
I said to the boss, "Brother Han, I'll go out after dinner and come back soon."
The boss is also heroic: "Okay, go!"
I finished my meal in a hurry, and left without changing my uniforms.
I remember walking around Zhengfang Street that day, there was a bicycle shop on the opposite side of the east side.
Then, I went around from the west and arrived very quickly.
As soon as I arrived, I shouted inside, "Boss, come on a bike!"
The boss looked at me in response, and his face was a little happy, but he was silent for a while.
I am not surprised by his attitude, after all, in this era, the fact that the family can have a bicycle is enough to show that the family conditions are not bad.
And some young people, in order to show off, will also buy bicycles, but because there is not much money, the bicycles that can be bought are also very cheap.
This kind of young person usually pays half a day with the car seller, and it is no wonder that the boss is not so happy when he sees a child like me.
But he still said very enthusiastically: "Child, what brand do you want, or uncle, I will recommend it to you."
"You don't need to recommend anything, just give me the most expensive brand." I said proudly.
As soon as the boss heard my tone, he instantly felt that I was a son-in-law, but when he saw what I was wearing, he was dressed in a hotel work uniform, what kind of son-in-law was it. There is no wage earner who has not seen the market.
He said with some jokingness: "What, buy it for your girlfriend?" My most expensive brand is the Phoenix brand, and it costs 170 yuan! ”
"Not for yourself." As I spoke, I was about to pay for it, but when I remembered that I only had 160 yuan with me today, I said to him, "Boss, can it be cheaper?"
The boss said directly and resolutely: "It's not cheap!"
"Of course, there are cheap ones, right over there." After the boss finished speaking, he pointed inside, and there was a pile of worn-out bicycles.
I scratched my head and said, "It's ten dollars cheaper......
With that, I pulled out the money.
The boss looked at me and said, "Uh...... Ten dollars, that's cheap. ”
The boss's eyes changed when he looked at me, and I thought that he was another kid who had to negotiate with him to buy a bicycle. Now he happily took the money, counted it, and said, "Well, it's just one hundred and six yuan, come on, come and pick one."
I followed him, and when he lifted the curtain, five bikes appeared in front of me.
The boss lit a cigarette and said, "Come, these five are all at the price of 17, but the color and style are different, and the others are the same."
I nodded, then I took a look at a black bicycle, pointed at it and said, "That's it, no packaging, no giveaways, I'll ride it away!"
"Okay! I'll wipe it first. The boss said happily, then took a rag and wiped the bike clean.
When he was done, he brought me another lock and key, and I took the basket and put it in front of the car, and hurried to the shop.
As soon as I left the store, my eyes were stimulated by the sunlight and I quickly closed them.
Then I rubbed it and opened it again, and just then, I suddenly saw a person, which made me feel a little strange......
